Family and friends of revolutionary rock and roll star Chuck Berry are preparing to say a final goodbye.

The man considered by many to be one of the founding fathers of the genre is being buried back at home in Missouri over the weekend, some three weeks after he passed away.

In a nod to his impact on the industry, Berry was the first person ever to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
